Never miss a local story.

The 70,000-square-foot McKinney Oxford Grand Assisted Living & Memory Care will have 51 assisted living apartments and 22 memory care suites, which are for people with Alzheimer’s and dementia.

There will be restaurant-style dining, a coffee bar, a fitness center and a demonstration kitchen, among other things.

This makes Oxford’s second combination assisted living and memory care project.

The company’s Oxford Glen Memory Care product is solely for people who have Alzheimer’s and dementia. There are two Oxford Glens in Texas with one more under construction there and another in the works in Oklahoma.

The McKinney Oxford Grand is expected to be ready in September 2016.

Crossland Construction is the contractor, and LK Architecture is the architect.

Graham says market data showed McKinney is a good market for the Oxford Grand product.
